Executive Summary
As part of CCISD’s program evaluation process, the Office of Assessment and Evaluation has completed a program evaluation for the Athletics program encompassing the five-year period from the 2010-11 through 2014-15 school years.
The mission of CCISD Athletics is stated in the CCISD Coaches Handbook: “It is the mission of CCISD Athletics to promote and provide opportunities for each student athlete to develop into a productive citizen through work ethic, discipline and competition. We will create an environment that fosters humility, character, sportsmanship, making positive life choices and accept the idea that all deserve the right to be Champions.”
The philosophy of CCISD Athletics “is dedicated to giving all students the opportunity to participate in a highly competitive, comprehensive, accelerated athletic program by employing dedicated professionals and providing appropriate funding through fairly administered and conducted activities.
We believe that athletics is a microcosm of society and that through participation in our athletic program, student athletes will inherently learn life skills enabling them to be productive members of society capable of managing time, striving to set and obtain goals, and developing an enhanced self-discipline.”
Students in grades 7-8 tryout for athletics. Once they have been selected, students are enrolled in an Athletics class and tryout for individual sports as those seasons begin. Students in grades 9-12 have usually participated in intermediate athletics or on an outside of CCISD team. The following list includes the sports which are available for students to participate:
Girls: Basketball, Cross Country, Golf, Soccer, Softball, *Swimming, Tennis, Track, Volleyball, Wrestling
Boys: Baseball, Basketball, Cross Country, Football, Golf, Soccer, *Swimming, Tennis, Track, Wrestling
Co-Ed: Cheerleading, *Swimming, Trainer (*Water Polo and Diving are included in the Swim course)
The Athletics program was evaluated through seven questions:
1. What is the participation rate of students in the various Athletic programs?
At both the intermediate and high school level, students may enroll in more than one sport. For example, an intermediate student could be enrolled in volleyball, basketball, and tennis in the same grade level. During the five year period of this study, approximately 30% of boys in grades 7 and 8 participated in at least one athletic sport while 30% of girls in grade 7 participated in at least one athletic sport and about 25% of grade 8 girls participated in at least one sport. Approximately 47% of boys and 30% of girls in grade 9 participated in at least one athletic sport. The data also showed there was a decline for boys in participation through grade 12 for an average of about 27%. For girls, the data shows there is a decline in participation through grade 12 for an average of nearly 15%.
Based on students’ survey results conducted in January 2016, the number of sports which students participate declines from grade 7 through grade 12, with the greatest change occurring during the progression from grade 8 to grade 9. Many students who participated in the focus groups also spoke about their decision to focus on one sport. Some of this was due to the demands of participation outside of CCISD athletics, commonly referred to as club teams. This decline was also apparent in the data from the student surveys, where a large decline was with girls from their 7th grade to their 8th grade year.
Due to the nature of some sports participation restrictions, there is a usually a decline in the number of students returning to participate in a sport the next year. There is a feeder pattern from one level to the next level. Most sports will have one or two freshmen teams, one junior varsity (JV) team, and one varsity team. There are other sports where the participation rate is limited due to facilities, uniforms, and the number of coaches.

2. What are the academic achievements of students who participate in Athletics?
Based on the compiled coaches program evaluations completed at the end of each year, all CCISD coaches performed grade checks during the mandatory three week period and many have weekly grade checks. All coaches encouraged students to attend tutorials on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
In late September/early October of 2015, January and May of 2016, students were selected from each sport to be part of focus group discussions. Students from each group stated they had to be very organized and plan ahead with respect to balancing their academic and athletic schedules. Most students stated they found it challenging to be on top of their school work as well as practice, although some responses varied by sport. Many of the students in the focus groups were enrolled in Pre-AP or AP courses. Many of the student athletes stated they managed their time well and prioritized what school work needed their attention and knew what assignments were due when. Most students emphasized

signed a Letter of Intent to participate at the collegiate level. In 2013-14, there were a total of 90
student athletes who signed a Letter of Intent to participate at the collegiate level while there were 94
students who signed a Letter of Intent in 2014-15.
Of the 1270 student athletes who began their CCISD high school careers in 2010-11, 7.1% signed a Letter
of Intent. Of the 615 senior student athletes in 2013-14, 14.6% signed a Letter of Intent to participate at
the collegiate level.
5. What are the post-secondary outcomes for students who have participated in Athletics?
The National Student Clearinghouse has more than 3,600 participating colleges and universities. Those participants enroll 98% of all students in public and private U.S. institutions. The data is based on a student enrolling in college at any point after they graduate from high school. Students who graduated in 2011 have more opportunities to enroll in college than students who have recently graduated from high school in 2015.
The percentage of athletes who have enrolled in college after high school graduation range from 79.8% to 90.9% during the five year period of this study with an overall average of 87.0%.

Background Information on Athletics
The purpose of evaluating programs in CCISD shall be multi-faceted and shall result in findings, recommendations, and/or conclusions that:
Ensure program alignment with the District strategic plan;
Assess strengths and weaknesses of the program;
Measure the success of the program in meeting its expressed goals; and/or
Result in improvements in, revisions to, or discontinuation of the program.
As part of CCISD’s program evaluation process, the Office of Assessment and Evaluation has completed a program evaluation for the Athletics program encompassing the five-year period from the 2010-11 through 2014-15 school years.
CCISD’s Strategic Plan includes the following seven strategies, and the Athletics Program aligns with each strategy as detailed below:
I. We will inspire learning through an array of personalized opportunities and experiences. Students are required to take physical education classes in elementary school through two semesters of high. Students may begin to enroll and tryout for athletic teams in grade 7. Students who meet the athletic class requirements experience personalized learning opportunities in order to maximize their learning, which is tailored to their interests in Athletics, including team and individual sports.
II. We will provide student support to meet the needs and aspirations of each student. As conveyed in the student focus groups, coaches support students’ needs and aspirations through the relationships they build with their student athletes and the sense of community in which coaches and students create. Along with the student focus groups, the student, parent, and teacher survey results revealed students have acquired lifelong skills, which will help them be successful in everyday life, including, but not limited to skills such as teamwork, collaboration, persistence, and problem-solving.
III. We will ensure safe and nurturing learning environments. Coaches are required to be CPR certified and maintain their certification. High school athletic programs employee two certified athletic trainers to provide treatment and rehabilitation should an athlete become injured.
IV. We will ensure each student understands and assumes his or her role as a productive citizen. As evident in the student focus groups, the development of skills such as time management, hard work, perseverance, self-motivation, and work ethic are examples of the character traits student athletes exhibit.
V. We will broaden and strengthen connections within our communities. Throughout student athletes’ high school enrollment, they participate in many community and school service events. PK-12 communities participate in events such as homecoming, which helps strengthen the bond between and among students of all ages. There are many community events and performances in which student athletes participate, they learn how to interact with community members in order to support the district and the community as a productive citizen.

VI. We will ensure mutual understanding and support through effective communication.
Through the student athletes’ experiences in athletics, they learn effective communication skills as they collaborate with one another and their coaches through practice, games, events, and matches.
VII. We will build capacity for organizational change.
Head coaches mentor assistant coaches to become future head coaches. Coaches are provided with various Professional Learning opportunities within and outside of CCISD. Opportunities present themselves on a daily basis for coaches and student athletes to develop their leadership skills.
University Interscholastic League (UIL)
The UIL is the governing body which oversees how athletics is administered throughout the state. The UIL is “the largest inter-school organization of its kind in the world” (UIL, 2016a).
The UIL exists to provide opportunities for middle and high school age students to participate in educational extracurricular academic, athletic, and music contests. “The purpose of the UIL is to organize and properly supervise contests that assist in preparing students for citizenship. It aims to provide healthy, character building, educational activities carried out under rules providing for good sportsmanship and fair play for all participants” (UIL, 2016b).
Over the years, administrators from across the state have served on various UIL committees to assist with writing the rules and administrative guidelines for athletics in the state of Texas. Each sport has an individual plan and schedule for each school year. There are overarching rules and regulations for student conduct, eligibility, coaches’ code of conduct, contests, officials, and school practice and game restrictions along with rule violations and penalties.
CCISD Athletics
The mission of CCISD Athletics is stated in the CCISD Coaches Handbook “It is the mission of CCISD Athletics to promote and provide opportunities for each student athlete to develop into a productive citizen through work ethic, discipline and competition. We will create an environment that fosters humility, character, sportsmanship, making positive life choices and accept the idea that all deserve the right to be Champions.”
The philosophy of CCISD Athletics “is dedicated to giving all students the opportunity to participate in a highly competitive, comprehensive, accelerated athletic program by employing dedicated professionals and providing appropriate funding through fairly administered and conducted activities. We believe that athletics is a microcosm of society and that through participation in our athletic program, student athletes will inherently learn life skills enabling them to be productive members of society capable of managing time, striving to set and obtain goals, and developing an enhanced self-discipline.”
Three main themes are apparent in all successful athletic programs: integrity, character, and honesty, and these themes must be exhibited first by the coach, who is held accountable for passing these characteristics on to each student athlete.

Background
“Participation in the athletic program at CCISD is a privilege and as such, the student athlete is held to a much higher standard than that of the general school population; therefore, the guidelines and rules that each coach sets for the team will be stricter in nature than those delineated in the Student Code of Conduct” (CCISD Coaches Handbook).There are limited high school athletic program evaluations publicly available to compare against CCISD athletics. The state of Connecticut has a set of defined standards which each member school will measure how they compare to the standards as well as identify areas for improvement. The five areas which the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference (CIAC) standards are based on include: guiding principles, curriculum, resources and equity, administration, and program and player evaluation. There are indicators within each of the five standards for schools to measure themselves against. Surveys are conducted with parents, students, and the coaching staff. The evaluation is completed with findings, commendations, and recommendations. The CIAC program evaluation is a process for continuous improvement, similar to CCISD’s program evaluation process. Appendix C shows the five standards with the embedded indicators. (The Connecticut Association of Schools, 2015)

Based on students’ survey results conducted in January 2016, the number of sports which students participate declines from grade 7 through grade 12, with the greatest change occurring during the progression from grade 8 to grade 9. Many students who participated in the focus groups also spoke about their decision to focus on one sport. Some of this was due to the demands of participation outside of CCISD athletics, commonly referred to as club teams.

1. What is the participation rate of students in the various Athletic programs?
Retention Rate
Due to the nature of some sports participation restrictions, there is a usually a decline in the number of students returning to participate in a sport the next year. There is a feeder pattern from one level to the next level. Most sports will have one or two freshmen teams, one junior varsity (JV) team, and one varsity team. For example, in girls basketball there are two freshmen teams (A and B) and is limited to only freshmen participants. The JV team can have freshmen through juniors on the team. The varsity team can have freshmen through seniors participate; however, there are a limited number of places for each participant. If a freshmen has the skill to compete against the upper classmen, there will be fewer spots available for those upper classmen. Since there can only be five players on the court at one time, a varsity coach will usually limit the number of players on the roster so that players can get playing time during practice and games.
There are other sports where the participation rate is limited due to facilities, uniforms, and the number of coaches. For example, many football teams will keep most if not all participants who tryout from the freshmen squad through varsity. There are many more opportunities for players to participate in a football game even though there are only eleven players on the field at one time. For example, there are opportunities to play on offense, defense, and special teams.

During the 2011-12 school year, there were 479 seventh grade female student athletes who were enrolled in an athletic course. Of the 479 female student athletes, 41.2% were still enrolled in an athletic course during their senior year. Overall, about 70% of seventh grade female student athletes remain in the athletic program during the next school year.
During the 2013-14 school year, there were 318 eleventh grade female student athletes who were enrolled in an athletic course. Of the 318 female student athletes, 66.8% were still enrolled in an athletic course during their senior year. Overall, about 70% of eleventh grade female student athletes remain in the athletic program during their senior year.
There is a rise in the number of freshmen female student athletes each year. This is due to more choices in sports (soccer, softball, wrestling, and watersports).

2. What are the academic achievements of students who participate in Athletics?
In 1984, the passing of House Bill 72 (HB 72) included a provision known as No Pass, No Play. HB 72 set the standard for students to participate in athletics as well as all extra-curricular activities by stating that students must be passing all courses in order to continue their participation. At the time, if a student was failing a course, they could not continue to participate in practice or competition and had to sit out until they passed on the next grading cycle (six weeks). Currently, the law states students are suspended from participation in competition but may still practice. Coaches check grades every three weeks until the student is passing.
From the UIL website: Students must be eligible under no-pass, no-play. Extracurricular activities include public
performances, contests, demonstrations, displays, and club activities. An activity would be considered extracurricular if: o the activity is competitive; o the activity is held in conjunction with another activity that is considered extracurricular; o the activity is held off campus, except in a case in which adequate facilities do not exist on
campus; o the general public is invited; o an admission price is charged.
Exception: If a student is enrolled in a state-approved course in which he or she must demonstrate mastery of the essential knowledge and skills in a public performance, then he or she may participate so long as the activity is not competitive; it is not held in conjunction with another activity that is competitive; and an admission price is not charged.
Basics of No Pass, No Play Must be passing all courses (except identified advanced classes). Students lose eligibility for a three-week period, which is defined as 15 class days. Exception: one,
but only one, of the three school weeks may consist of only three or four class days, provided the school has been dismissed for a scheduled holiday period. Two class days does not constitute a school week. Exception: Thanksgiving if schools are on holiday Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
School week begins at 12:01 a.m. on the first instructional day of the calendar week and ends at the close of instruction on the last instructional day of the calendar week (excluding holidays).
Ineligible students must wait seven (7) calendar days after a three-week evaluation period and the grading period to regain eligibility.
Students may regain eligibility an unlimited number of times throughout the school year. Passing means a minimum grade of 70 on all courses (except identified advanced classes).
Note: Spring break can't be part of the 3-week evaluation process. All students are eligible during spring break.
Advanced and Honors Classes The following courses are identified as advanced and, as such, eligible for exemption as noted in
section 33.081 of the Texas Education Code: o Any College Board Advanced Placement (AP) Course or International Baccalaureate (IB) Course
and; o Honors* and high school/college concurrent enrollment classes (that are included in Part One
of the “Community College General Academic Course Guide Manual”) in the subject areas of English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Economics or language other than English.
* Districts may identify honors courses only in the subject areas of English language arts, mathematics, science, social
studies, economics, or a language other than English as eligible for exemption. However, districts must identify such
courses prior to the semester in which any exemptions related to extracurricular activities occur.

2. What are the academic achievements of students who participate in Athletics?
Based on the compiled coaches program evaluations completed at the end of each year, all CCISD coaches perform grade checks during the mandatory three week period, and many have weekly grade checks. All coaches encourage students to attend tutorials on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Many coaches require student athletes with any grade below 80 to attend tutorials in that subject. Some coaches have policies that if a student athlete is not passing a course, they must sit out of practice/games until they are in good standing even if the student athlete was passing during the required three week grade check.
Student Focus Group
In late September/early October of 2015, and January and May 2016, students were selected from each sport to be part of a focus group discussion. Students from each group stated they had to be very organized and plan ahead with respect to balancing their academic and athletic schedules. Most students stated they found it challenging to be on top of their school work as well as practice, although some responses varied by sport. Many of the students in the focus groups were enrolled in Pre-AP or AP courses. Many of the student athletes stated they managed their time well and prioritized what school work needed their attention and knew what assignments were due when.
Most students emphasized their coaches allowed for some flexibility for completing assignments and/or attending tutorials to catch up on classwork.

3. What benefits, beyond academic achievements, do students receive from being in Athletics?
House Bill 5 requires that each campus is evaluated on eight areas of community and student engagement:
1. Fine Arts 2. Wellness and Physical Education 3. Community and Parental Involvement 4. 21st Century Workforce Development Program 5. Second Language Acquisition Program 6. Digital Learning Environment 7. Dropout Prevention Strategies 8. Educational Programs for Gifted and Talented Students
For the 2013-14 ratings, CCISD developed a rating system based on the number of community and student engagement opportunities available. If a district has four or more measures, they receive 4 points for a rating of Exemplary; three measures equals 3 points for a rating of Recognized; two measures equals 1 point for a rating of Acceptable; and zero to one measure equals 0 points for a rating of Unacceptable.
The table below shows many of the indicators that were included in the 2014-15 Community and Student Engagement report for Athletics. These activities were opportunities for CCISD students and/or the community to be involved within the Athletic program during the year.

3. What benefits, beyond academic achievements, do students receive from being in Athletics?
Based on the compiled coaches program evaluations completed at the end of each year, most athletic programs in CCISD indicated they spent time on character development as well as leadership skills. The coaching staff believes it is important to develop their student athletes into outstanding young men and women who show leadership, integrity, high ethics, and community involvement.
Coaches may show videos which demonstrate great character, provide discussions involving character development, integrity, hard work in practice and games as well as in the classroom. Coaches uphold the CCISD Student Honor Code and many programs have their own set of rules and expectations which are explained to the student athletes as well as the parents. One program has only one rule: Do Not Dishonor the Program.
Student Focus Groups
Based on student focus group discussions, many students felt they have learned many skills outside of their sport. Many students spoke about developing skills such as time management, hard work, perseverance, self-motivation, and work ethic.

3. What benefits, beyond academic achievements, do students receive from being in Athletics?
Students benefit from participating in extracurricular activities which cannot be measured through an assessment or displayed on a scale. “By participating in extracurricular activities students learn lessons in leadership, teamwork, organization, analytical thinking, problem solving, time management, learning to juggle many tasks at once and it allows them to discover their talents” (Massoni, 2011, p.3).
A series of questions was asked of students, parents, and coaches as part of the survey administered in January 2016, which relate to those skills learned outside of the sport in which they participate. The following tables show the survey results.

Superintendent’s Recommendations
1. We will investigate additional professional learning opportunities for all coaches by August 2017.
2. We will explore the possibility of splitting Swimming/Water Polo Coach into two separate coaching positions in order to alleviate the time commitments of this position and enhance the ability to recruit and retain coaches for each sport.
